Configuring Routing 545
RIP
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is an Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) based on the Bellman-Ford
algorithm and targeted at smaller networks (network diameter no greater than 15 hops). The routing
information is propagated in RIP update packets that are sent out both periodically and in the event of a
network topology change. On receipt of a RIP update, depending on whether the specified route exists or
does not exist in the route table, the router may modify, delete or add the route to its route table. Route
preferences are conveyed through a configurable metric that indicates the distance for each destination.
The RIP menu page contains links to web pages that configure and display RIP parameters and data. To
display this page, click Routing
→ RIP in the tree view. Following are the web pages accessible from this
menu page:
• RIP Configuration
